Ebay has been a pregnant dog lately...
Anyway, bought a PCIII on ebay. They guy said it was a USB. it isnt. its for a 2003 620IE. Anyone know if i can load up a map for an S2R and make it run? Honestly, I am asking because i CANNOT find someone with a serial to USB cable. I dont even have a serial port.
Can you even connect the PCIII USB software to the serial versions?

You can't file a complaint that the item is not as advertised? I haven't had a serial port in more than 5 years.

I did. And he's being a pregnant dog. He said "it will work" etc. i said no it wont. filed a claim. in the resolution center, he says okay, i will take it back, and he also sends me an email saying hell return the shipping cost both ways. So I replied (in the resolution center) okay, give me your address, and verify the that you said you are goign to give me a full refund + shipping costs back to you. He hasn't said anything and its been over 24 hours.
I have 2 PCIII's in my house a PCIIIR an a PCIII USB. I found out my onw answer thouhg. USB software is not backwards compatible, so i have no way of loading a map onto it, which means im not even going to bother looking for a serial cable.
Anyone have a PCIII for sale? lol a USB ONE!

Best Buy, and probably Circuit City will have a USB to Serial converter.
Expensive, $40 if I remember.

you can also by a pcimcia card that has 2 serial ports on it This will work for sure. the usb to serial adapters do work most of the time. the old ones didn`t work as well.

Wouldnt matter anyway. PCIII USB software will not talk to a PCIIIR.

Hell, just go out and buy an old computer for your garage. They practically give them away on craigs list. Probably get one cheaper than a new cable!

They used to have it on their website. I can't seem to find it now... Email DynoJet and ask if they still have it available.

+1. What's the guy's username? Glad you decided to go with straight USB. Those adapters are really iffy. Unfortunately a lot of the stuff I work on at work is still 9-pin serial, the stuff's a pain to work with.
